1. MSUM
2. Minn
3. Michigan
4. Denver
Agreed. Denver getting #9 would be absolutely brutal. Michigan getting #10 would be better...but still awful. I could live with Minnesota equaling Wisconsin. And the best result would be Mankato finally getting that first time.
Ole!

I don't think trolls have intentions of winning friends. It's just not in their DNA. : p

Does 19-20 not register due to the season going unfinished?
Correct. The formula relies upon various data points to compare teams across years. Some of those data points include the NCAA Tournament games. So, if there was no NCAA Tournament that season, the formula would throw a weird result. Thus, I don't include teams from a non tournament season.

I actually created a formula for ranking individual teams that made the NCAA Tournament across eras. I had a thread on it over at USCHO for quite some time. In any event, for the curious, here are where UND's teams stack up amongst the top 100 all time according to that formula (for the purposes of this thread, bolded are non-champions):
4. 1986-1987 North Dakota - 233.8107 Points
15. 2015-2016 North Dakota - 206.293 Points
19.2003-2004 North Dakota - 201.94 Points
24. 2010-2011 North Dakota - 192.042 Points
26. 1979-1980 North Dakota - 189.704 Points
34. 1996-1997 North Dakota - 186.5734 Points
50. 2000-2001 North Dakota - 170.5025 Points
57. 1998-1999 North Dakota - 164.72 Points
63. 1999-2000 North Dakota - 160.6462 Points
69. 2020-2021 North Dakota - 158.5835 Points
72. 1981-1982 North Dakota - 156.235 Points
74. 2014-2015 North Dakota - 155.409 Points
95. 1978-1979 North Dakota - 145.8522 Points

That's why I think there is a chance UND ends up in Worcester playing Umass in Westerns regional.
Highly unlikely that they will be placed in Western's regional. Committee has shown in years past that they try to keep the potential regional finals at 1/8, 2/7, 3/6, 4/5.
If the committee wants to avoid the possibility of an All-NCHC Frozen Four (which I don't believe they really care about), they can do so by pairing SCSU with Minnesota (who will almost certainly be placed with Western).

They're reviewing the goal a half hour after it was scored???????
Yep. After the trophy was presented. After they handed out Championship hats. Bizarre.

Yep, I just got us down to #9 as well on the predictor.
If UMD wins tomorrow, UMD, QU, and Notre Dame would all jump us.Yeah. I think if both Quinnipiac and Duluth win, most situations we are #9.
Maybe an omen? ; )

Who can jump us Umass and Qu?
I think we can still drop as low as #9 (3 seed). If all higher seeds win except UCONN and Duluth.

From the NCHC Website:
TIE BREAKERS
Seeding of teams for the NCHC Tournament shall be determined by the final NCHC standings at the end of the regular season. If two or more teams are tied for the regular-season championship, they shall be considered co-champions and both will receive a Penrose Cup.
Positions for the NCHC Tournament are determined according to the following procedure. Three-on-three overtime and shootout results (other than the accumulation of points as a result of shootouts) will not be used to help break ties for NCHC Tournament seeding.
1. If two or more teams are tied in the standings and all teams have played a balanced scheduled against one another (equal number of home and away games between all teams tied), the seeding for the NCHC Tournament shall be determined by the team with the best NCHC regular-season regulation winning percentage among the games played against the other teams tied in the standings. If any of the teams tied have played an unbalanced schedule against any other team tied this criterion will not be used and the following criteria will apply;
2. If not determined by (1), the seeding for the NCHC Tournament shall be determined by the greater number of NCHC regulation wins;
3. If not determined by (1) or (2), the seeding for the NCHC Tournament shall be the team with the best NCHC regular-season regulation winning percentage among the games played against the other teams tied in the standings, regardless of the schedule being balanced among the teams tied;
4. If not determined by (1) or (2) or (3), the seeding for the NCHC Tournament shall be determined by comparison of total goals for and against each team in regulation in contests between (among) the other teams tied in the standings in NCHC regular-season play;
5. If not determined by (1) or (2) or (3) or (4), the seeding for the NCHC Tournament shall be determined by comparison of the regulation winning percentages of the teams tied in the standings against the remaining highest ranked NCHC teams, successively, until the determination is accomplished or all NCHC regular-season contests have been considered;
6. If not determined by (1) or (2) or (2) or (4) or (5), the seeding for the NCHC Tournament shall be determined by the flip of a coin.

Well according to the official NCHC site, we are the champs
We are the champs. We just may have to share it with DU. The tiebreaker is solely for seeding purposes. The league has co-champs if tied in points.

Well crap....
We still have the Penne Rosa. Tomorrow is for the #1 seed.

If Denver wins and we lose tomorrow its a shared league title.
We have the tiebreaker for playoff seeds.
I think the seeding tiebreaker would go to Denver, unfortunately. First tiebreaker doesn't count because there wasn't equal games played home/away. Second tiebreaker is regulation wins. If DU wins out, and we lose tomorrow, DU will have more regulation wins and would be the #1 seed.

North Dakota clinches a Top 3 spot!
A split next weekend, and they clinch a Top 2 spot.
Or just win out and hoist another Penne Rosa!

Unfortunately if they lose tonight, there's a very real chance at being 0-6 to start the new year. SCSU next weekend is gonna be very tough.
Hopefully they can pull this one out, but they're having a hard time generating much offense.It certainly could happen. They could also sweep SCSU at home. I'll watch either way.

Never understood why a coach who played goalie would be in charge of the power play
It happens. It also happens across other sports. For example, Bill Belichick was a tight end in college, and wound up being one of the greatest defensive coaching minds in the history of the sport.

Has anyone else had lapses in the audio on NCHC.TV?
Yes. My audio is currently out, and it was to start the 2nd period as well.

Feels like it though, doesn't it?
No.
I think those people who had realistic expectations for this year's team (fight for home ice and be on the bubble come NCAA Tournament time), expected that there would be ups and downs. So, losing 3 in a row (or even 4 in a row if the game tonight does not turn around), is not unexpected.

Crazy that the CC series was already 6 weeks ago.
Back when they were still winning some games.What's even crazier is that some people on this board seem to think that we've lost 6 weeks' worth of games in a row.
Of course, they'll also be the first ones bragging the team up if they get going on a run.

They do get behind quite a bit it seems.
6 of their 13 wins they didn't score first...so I guess.

Yep. Whoever wins this year, it may be the first of a back to back. That's sort of how back to back titles work. You have to win one, and then win it again the following year.
